Learning with Miniature Horses

Join us to connect with our miniature horses, where they offer their wisdom by reflecting your thoughts, feelings, and actions to provide feedback, without bias or judgment.​

Bella Terra's Mindfulness Meditation Programs

Meditation with horses is simply an amazing experience and unlike typical meditations.
Join us to experience this unique and active meditation experience to connect in the present moment while relaxing and rejuvenating.
Horses offer us their gift of coherence and we’ll join them through heart-focused meditations.
​You'll learn about the benefits integrating a 3-minute coherence meditation into your daily routine.
​
No experience with horses or meditation is needed. This is a guided meditation so you can simply follow along.

This is a great experience for individuals, a group of friends, families, teams, and business groups.
​For groups and business teams, we can add additional mindful activities and/or explore Mindful Leadership.

Clothing to Wear

  • Typically, you'll be outdoors with the miniature horses, unless we need to be inside due to the weather.
  • Wear comfortable and casual clothing that you don't mind getting dirty.
  • Dress for the weather. During all seasons it's best to layer clothing and wear long pants.
  • It's required that you wear closed-toe shoes to protect your feet (no exceptions).

COVID Protocol to Protect People & Horses

  • In general we follow CDC and local guidelines. Please reference the CDC and Michigan websites for up to date information and requirements.
  • If you're actively shielding for reasons such as age or illness, please do not attend our programs.
  • We have a herd of senior miniature horses. Horses can contract COVID and have no protection from the virus. We require that you don't visit our farm if you or someone you've been in close contact with is experiencing flu-like symptoms or has tested positive for COVID within the past 10 days.
